I agree that the notion of Elrond not summoning Denethor or one of his representatives to Rivendell for the Council of Elrond doesn't make sense.
By the same token, surely the White Council would have been more effective if it had included not only the Eldar and Saruman and Gandalf but also representatives of all the other potential enemies of Sauron, like Gondor, Rohan, Thranduil, Dwarves, Beornings and Men of the Vale of Anduin ?
